Wedding church pew decorations can be more elegant than just white bows . . much doesn't have to add that much in cost. Back with inexpensive greenery, and simple pew bows can add lovely decor down your church aisle.
Making Pew Bows

Finishing Touch
to help keep the greens supple and fresh. The greens will shatter a little, so bring a mini vac or a dustpan and broom for a quick cleanup of the aisle after you've fastened your bows to the pews.
Pew Clips
Pew clips are a handy and quick way to create your bows and greenery. Circle the Oasis center with short pieces of the fern, cut the bow wire short and insert deep into the center of the Oasis foam. Finish with long draping ferns under the bottom of the bow.
